Instructors
Leyla Ahmet Meredith
2 Certificates
Show
With her diploma and certificate in hand, Leyla flew to Ethiopia. She has traveled a lot and had various journeys through Africa before settling in Jinja, Uganda. She became qualified as a yoga teacher in 2008 with Africa Yoga and has been teaching extensively over the world since then. Initially drawn to the dynamic nature of Ashtanga and its power and moving meditation qualities, she has now softened herself and prefers to teach Vinyasa flow.
Payal Gori
1 Certificate
Show
Payal is a biotechnologist turned yoga teacher. Since she was a child, she found herself very curious about the mind, body, and soul connection. Until the age of 23, Payal had a regular yoga practice as a part of her culture, not paying much attention to it. At the age of 24, due to a major shift in her life, she left her job in one of the most competitive environments in the world and took a break. This is when she re-discovered her enthusiasm for yoga. She dedicated the next year deepening her own practice with several teachers in India, and in 2014, she became a full-time yoga teacher.
Retreat location
June is magical in Cyprus. It is the last month of Spring, the fields are still a riot of colour with wildflowers, tulips, poppies and gladioli. The warmth of summer is beginning to arrive yet mornings and evenings are still mild and very comfortable to practice yoga. Castles in the mountains and beautiful beaches to explore and endless supplies of hummus, peaches, apricots and olives make it the perfect time to visit.
Karuna Yoga Journey believes in supporting the local community so they hire an air-conditioned yoga shala from a local lady in the village which is a few minute's walk through the old town from the Guest House. Expect to be greeted by the local community and invited for tea after 3 days or so.
